Excellent product, received in less than 15 days without any additional cost (sent to Paris, and the French are grumpy with Customs). In the box everything was like in the description. The battery life is about 10/12 minutes (trust me, is the same as all helicopters for iPhone ... for example the Parrot is 20 minutes and costs 300 €) and charging times are 30/40 minutes. I use it often during breaks at work, all my colleagues have bought one. I could try this model (with simple LED) and the one equipped with missiles. The model with the missiles is slightly larger, heavier and more powerful, difficult to maneuver than the basic model. There are three frequencies to communicate, so you can use it when others use their own helicopters. Honestly, I'm very happy of the product. MiniInTheBox is the preferred site to buy, wide choice of models and good prices.
PS. you can find a promotional code, that can give you some special price! ;)
